What do I love about my Capreit community? It's down to either my huge living room with beautiful original finishes, the amazing skyline view from the building's park, or the historical grounds and mansion.

We have been living here for the last 2 years and we couldn't be happier. As UofA students, the location cannot be better. Being near Whyte avenue and the River Valley allows many options to disconnect from the academic life. As dog owners, the fact that the building is pet friendly (with no restriction in size) is a big big plus. Finally, but not least, the managing staff has always been great with us. Lucky to be here!

Mayfair is a wonderful place to live with equally wonderful staff members! Tammy specifically is amazing. She always greets [us] when we walk by the office and she remembers small details about us (which is amazing with how many units there are). She not only works very hard and answers all questions that we have but she is beyond kind! The kindness she has toward us makes this place more incredible to live at!

Great place to live as a student at [the] UofA. I lived here for 2 years during my graduate program - staff is friendly and professional, building is clean, community is nice and had no issues with maintenance or deposit returns....for the price and community, it was worth it. Would recommend.

Tammy and Amanda at the rental office are the sweetest! They always have a smile on their faces and always greet my dog Zora with pets and treats any day they see her.
